Samenvatting:

The agricultural sector is playing a vital role in human and economic development. The impact of agricultural solid waste on human and animal well-being as well as on environment is substantial, which is mainly due to ignorance during managing agricultural solid waste. Agricultural biomass is a naturally available, complex organic or non-organic product. It is viewed as a promising option and sustainable energy source that can be changed by controlled heating into a worth item like activated carbon (AC). The characteristics of any activated carbon depends on various biomass properties like, its type, % moisture, % ash, size of particle and its chemical composition. This book gives the idea of managing solid waste by transforming agricultural waste into value added product like activated carbon. This book gives the information of variety of raw materials used for synthesis of activated carbon, properties, methods of preparation and their applications.
